K10B----
The new KB series petrol engine from Maruti Suzuki will be a three-cylinder, 998cc engine with distributor-less ignition and dedicated plug top coils, high pressure semi-return fuel system and advanced injectors for superior atomization.

"The new engine, that will come up in 1.0 lite and 1.2 litre petrol version as well as 1.3 litre diesel engine, will also be used for the company's next upcoming global model Splash that will be launched next year,"
K12B
Suzuki's developed a brand-new K12B 1.2-liter engine and linked it to CVT transmission.
The payoff is a 20.5 km/l rating in fuel cycle that's very competitive in its class.

Looks interesting - externally appears similar to G series.
So many delays to getting my MB back in order with 993cc & 5 speed transaxle... neighbor issue gone, donor shell up on rotisserie, new sheds on the way.... another project also..

Would love to get my hands on the K10B, to size it up for the Mighty boy.
Modern engine and box, while still keeping 'true' to the 3cyl heritage.
